When Marcus was a child, he had a loving family and a talent for football.

With his mother's support, Marcus followed his dreams and progressed through the academy at Manchester United Football Club. He worked hard and trained for years until he reached the pinnacle of the sport, making his debut in the Premier League in 2016. But no matter his success, he never forgot where he came from and his experience as a hungry child. When schools closed during the Coronavirus pandemic in 2020, it left school children without free meals. Thus, Marcus took up leading a national campaign to ensure no child would go hungry.
